Leader of Opposition in Punjab assembly Sukhpal Singh Khaira today hit out at the government over delay in appointment of vice chancellors in various universities in the state.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA alleged that for the last five months these universities were running their day to day affairs without VCs.
